Every day I think about how lucky I am to live in Paris, and I'm even luckier to get to see all those places through Ladybug's eyes. No one knows the city like Cat Noir and I do. Even when we're on a mission, we can't help but stop for a minute and marvel at the magical city we live in.

Originally, in earlier development, Thomas Astruc considered setting the series in Hong Kong, China, as French animated shows weren't usually allowed to take place in France, but Jeremy Zag supported the series' main location being Paris.[3]

The city is the main focus of the webisode "Marinette in Paris".

The distance between the featured locations is larger in real life than what they appear to be on screen.

Thomas Astruc explained at Comic Con Paris 2016 that Season 1 was limited in locations due to the lower budget. However, for Season 2, the crew has been able to expand on Paris' locations, adding real and important places like the Arc de Triomphe and Sorbonne.[4]

Paris in Season 1 was not meant to be entirely accurate. However, Paris in Season 2 is meant to be more geographically grounded.

According to Victory in the third issue of Miraculous Adventures, Ladybug and Cat Noir are the only superheroes in Paris presently.

Ladybug and Cat Noir appear to be relatively unknown by civilians outside Paris:
